6. New Business — Public Hearing
Case No. B19002 - 3104 S Ten Mile Drive, Signage Variance. Request filed by Texas
Roadhouse Holdings LLC, applicant, and 3104 S Ten Mile Drive LLC - Donna Maxwell, property
owner, for a variance to the Chapter 3 of the City Code Section 3-7.B.4 ( Roof Mounted Flags or
Flagpoles) to be able to install 2 roof mounted flag poles. The property is located on the North
side of South Ten Mile Drive 400 feet East of the intersection of South Ten Mile Drive and
Missouri Blvd and is described Part of the Southeast Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section
10, Township 44 north, Range 12 West, in the City of Jefferson, Cole County, Missouri.
Mr. Zollinger described the proposal and explained that the property is zoned C-2 General
Commercial. He stated that the subject property is the former site of Orscheln's Farm and Home.
Mr. Zollinger explained that the applicant is proposing to build a restaurant on the site. He stated
that the purpose of the request is to install two roof mounted flagpoles for the proposed restaurant.
Mr. Zollinger explained that roof mounted flagpoles are prohibited within Chapter 3 of Advertising
and Signs. He stated that in order to permit the roof mounted flagpoles, the property owner has
applied for a variance to the section of the city code that the flagpoles are in conflict with.
Mr. Jason Boling, Greenberg Farrow, 21 South Evergreen Avenue, Suite 200, Arlington Heights,
IL spoke regarding this request and explained that they represent Texas Roadhouse Restaurant
and their entitlements. He stated that they are proposing two rooftop mounted flagpoles with one
displaying the United States flag and one displaying the State of Texas flag. Mr. Boling explained
that the proposed flagpoles are 12 feet in height and would bring the total height of the building to
39 feet 6 inches. He stated that without the flagpoles the total height of the building would be 27
feet 6 inches. Mr. Boling explained that the nylon flags would be approximately 5x8. He stated that
the flags are part of the Texas Roadhouse Restaurant brand, since they do not do a lot of
advertising. Mr. Boling explained that Texas Roadhouse Restaurant feels that the flags are
essential to the success of their restaurant and that is the reason for requesting the variance. He
stated that this will be a total site demolition.
No one spoke in opposition to this request and no correspondence was received.
Mr. Zollinger gave the Planning Division staff report and explained that the required findings for
the proposed signage variances appear to be met. The location of the roof mounted flagpoles
would have little effect on adjacent properties due to the significant separation distance between
buildings and presence of the highway.
Ms. Lacy moved and Mr. Seaver seconded to approve the variance in order to permit two roof
mounted flagpoles.
After discussion, the motion passed 5-0 with the following roll call vote:
Aye: Hake, Keating, Lacy, Schaefer, Seaver
Case No. B19003 - 202 Boonville Road, Fence Height Variance. Request filed by Melanie and
Kevin Bullard, property owners, for 2 foot variance to the maximum height of a fence in the front
setback area of 4 feet to permit a 6 foot tall fence at the property line adjacent to Hayselton Drive.
The property is located north of the intersection of Boonville Road and Hayselton Drive and is
described as Lot Number Fifty-three (53) of Block Number Three (3) of Sunset Place Addition, a
subdivision of Part of Section No. 1, Township 44, Range 12, and Section Nos. 35 and 36,
Township 45, Range 12, Cole County, Missouri.
Mr. Zollinger described the proposal and explained that the subject property is zoned RS -3 Single
Family Residential. He stated that the property owner is requesting a variance to the maximum
height of a fence within the front setback adjacent to Hayselton Drive. Mr. Zollinger explained that
the fence currently exists and was installed by a previous property owner before the current
property owners purchased the property and was built without obtaining a building permit. He stated
that the property has two street frontages one on Boonville Road and one on Hayselton Drive. Mr.
Zollinger explained that the property is of an irregular shape and is wedged between Boonville
Road and Hayselton Drive. He stated that the current fence height is 6 feet, whereas the maximum
height of a fence in the front setback is 4 feet.

February 12, 2019
Ms. Melanie Bullard, 202 Boonville Road, spoke regarding this request and explained that they
purchased their home on November 30, 2018 and as part of the contract they requested that a
privacy fence be installed. She stated that the homeowner at that time obliged and built the fence
unbeknownst to them without a building permit. Ms. Bullard explained that they received a letter in
December 2018 from the City stating that they were in violation of the City Code with having a 6
foot fence as opposed to an allowable 4 foot fence in a front yard. She stated that was the reason
for applying for a variance to allow the existing 6 foot fence.
No one spoke in opposition to this request and no correspondence was received.
Mr. Zollinger gave the Planning Division staff report and explained that the required findings
appear to be met. The irregular shape of the property combined with the property having two street
frontages results in a hardship that can be relieved through a variance to the maximum height of a
fence in the front setback.
Ms. Keating moved and Mr. Seaver seconded to approve a 2 foot variance to the maximum
height of a fence in the front setback area of 4 feet to permit a 6 foot tall fence at the front property
line adjacent to Hayselton Drive for the existing fence.
After discussion, the motion passed 5-0 with the following roll call vote:
Aye: Hake, Keating, Lacy, Schaefer, Seaver

development plan map of the comprehensive
plan. Use of the property as an office and
operations facility including outdoor storage

appropriate industrial use.
Finding
Yes
No
Comments
The proposed use complies with all applicable
provisions of the zoning district regulations and
conforms to the general intent and purpose of the
Zoning Ordinance
X
The site development would meet the zoning
district regulations including setbacks and
buffer yards.
The proposed use complies with all fire, health,
building, plumbing, electrical and storm water
drainage regulations of the City and regulations of
County, state and federal agencies.
X
A final site plan detailing compliance with
all applicable regulations would be required
prior to issuance of a building permit for the
development.
The proposed conditional use is not materially
detrimental to the public health, safety,
convenience and welfare, or results in material
damage or prejudice to other property in the
vicinity.
X
While the subject property borders property
that is zoned RA -2 and RS -2, the
development of the property as an office and

mitigated through the required bufferyard in
the zoning code and additional screening as
required by the section on specific use
standards found in Section 35-41.16(a) and

the installation of landscaping trees and
fence along the northern property line would
help to mitigate the visual nuisance of
outdoor storage on the adjacent,
undeveloped, multi -family zoned property.
The proposed use does not generate pedestrian and
vehicular traffic which will be hazardous to the
existing and anticipated traffic in the
neighborhood.
X
The proposed use would not generate a

Motion for approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit to allow for the use of outdoor storage
with the following condition:
1. A row of trees of 5 per 100 feet and a 6' tall screening fence be installed along the North
property line.
